Bottle from The Dock. Poured clear dark amber with an average frothy white head that diminished slowly with fair lacing. Good balanced aroma. Medium body. Well balanced flavor with a moderate bitter finish. Average brew.

Not a bad beer at all especially for the price. Pours a light golden making a short lasting white head. Flavor is of light malt that goes down fairly smooth. A nice refreshing lager.

This is probably the best pale lager I’ve had yet. I was guessing premium before I looked it up. Pour was a medium gold with a decent 2 finger white head. Aroma of light malt with not much else. This was thick and tasty for a pale lager. Malt really shining through and leaving a sticky beer aftertaste. Nice

Bottle. Pours like cream-soda; small head and yellow color. Nice grainy and hopy aroma. Taste was more bitter and sharper than I expected. Not much flavor here. There are plenty of macros that taste better.

This beer is to blame for my worst hangover headache in over 10 years of beer drinking. It’s not bad, it’s pretty smooth, and apparently there is anti-brain chemical in there, because I was laid up for two days after a night of drinking this from the keg at a wedding reception.

(bottle with "Special Brew" historical label) medium gold with white head. Faint malt aroma. Medium bodied, light lager flavor - not really as crisp as a pilsner. But not a bad lager.

I bought this beer (bottled) because it was on sale. And really, it is not too bad. Different from the big 3, and better. It pours a little darker in the glass than the typical macro stuff. And the flavor is definitely different. Worth drinking, but nothing you would serve to an Englishman on purpose.
